In this report the developmental history, an overview of the current plastic pipe market and some of the practical problems encountered in laying new pipelines are covered initially. The author explains the design considerations involved in a new pipeline, he details fluid flow, safe pressure containment, the life expectancy of the system, how and where it is to be laid, what level of damage tolerance is acceptable as well as some of the specifications and test methods used within plastic pipe design. An additional indexed section containing several hundred abstracts from the Rapra Polymer Library database provides useful references for further reading.

This book provides a highly illustrated guide to the design, installation and maintenance of hot and cold water supply systems for domestic buildings. Based on British Standard BS 6700, the new edition takes into account revisions to the standard since the book was first published in 1991. It has also been updated to give guidance on the 1999 Water Supply Regulations and includes revisions to the Building Regulations. Written for designers and installers, this immensely practical book will also be of interest to technical staff of water undertakers, property services managers and students of NVQ and BTech courses. It was specially commissioned by the British Standards Institution and written for BSI by Bob Garrett, formerly of Langley College of Further Education and past President of the National Association of Plumbing Teachers.
